DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins

Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Stillington
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Do you need sink repair in Stillington?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
